Styling was revised this year, an antiskid system became available, and a 5-speed automatic transmission replaced the 4-speed unit. Base models now were called Linear, midrange versions were renamed Arc, and the Aero again ranked as the top model--with a 20-horsepower increase. An automatic transmission was standard on the Arc and optional on other models. The antiskid system was standard on the Aero and optional on others. It helped prevent skids in turns by regulating braking and engine power. Xenon headlights also became optional. Front airbag deployment now was affected by occupant size and position. Less

9-5 Linear: A Great Automobile

by hamellontrial , Feb 11, 2003
Pros: Comfort, feel, economy, classiness without the ostentatious aura
Cons: The lack of pretentiousness. Too heavy to handle like a sports car.
The Bottom Line: If you want a sedan to comfortably move four adults anywhere and make the driver extra content, this is an excellent choice that will inspire no regrets.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: This car does everything a great car should without raising any valid complaints. It has ample power for day to day driving, even if your day to day driving requires that you have power squeeze into places rather than sit and wait for your turn. At...

A WRX By Any Other Name Would Smell As Sweet... If It Cost Less

by drive571 , Nov 16, 2004
Pros: Thrilling turbo thrust, surefooted chassis, quicker steering, improved ride and refinement.
Cons: Cheap Impreza interior, subpar shifter, still somewhat noisy, feels less substantial than European rivals.
The Bottom Line: Think of the 9-2X as a "special-edition" WRX, and you'll likely come away impressed. But if you're craving Swedish soul and substance, the 9-2X won't satisfy.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: My Experience

The "sport wagon" segment has been growing quickly in recent years, spearheaded by the Subaru Impreza WRX in 2002. These vehicles have allowed enthusiasts a taste of the "active lifestyle" versatility that draws many...

Saabaru?

by npuff , Nov 13, 2004
Pros: Much more refined than Subaru WRX. Additional luxury options available that WRX does not offer.
Cons: More expensive list price than Subaru WRX, but you get your money's worth.
The Bottom Line: A great car for a fair price. It's more Subaru than Saab, but more refined in most every way than the equivalent Subaru WRX. Buy the Aero version.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Let me start by saying that I am biased towards the Subaru WRX. I have owned a 2002 WRX 5-speed sport wagon since late summer of 2001. Hands down the WRX is one of the best cars for the money on the planet. It is fast, fun to drive, and practical,...
